On August 30, the day before Constitution Day of Slovakia, buildings where key decisions for the country are made will be open to everyone. The National Council of the Slovak Republic (parliament) and the Presidential Palace will hold their traditional Open Day (Deň otvorených dverí).

The event's program will take place not only in the parliament building itself on Námestie Alexandra Dubčeka in Bratislava but also on the grounds of Bratislava Castle. Visitors will be able to see the rooms where members of parliament usually work, learn about the history of Slovak parliamentarism, and find out more about the work of the legislative body.

At the same time, the Presidential Palace will also open its doors to the public, offering a unique chance to peek inside the head of state's residence. This is a great opportunity for residents and visitors of the capital to see the historic buildings from the inside and better understand how state institutions function.

Usually, the program includes various exhibitions and cultural events. A detailed schedule will be published closer to the date, so it is worth following the official websites of the institutions for updates. Entry for visitors during the Open Day is free.
